Whistler Mountain Biking Adventures

Mountain biking is a fun challenging Whistler summer activity for EVERYONE.

When the snow finally melts away in the valley & up in the Whistler Mountain Bike Park we start to get that feeling, some may call it an itch here a Mountain Adventures not looking for snow but the lack of it on mountain bike trails! The beloved mountain bikes get pulled out of storage assembled and fine tuned. The next thought is wear do we go first!!!!!!!

Whistler has been setting the standards for Mountain Biking in the world over the past few years. With the ever growing and evolving Whistler Valley trail network and Whistler Bike Park. Whistler offers something for everyone and we can show you a mountain bike trail to suit your own adventure.

Whistler Bike Park offers 43 trails which add up to around 200km (126 miles) of some of the best hair raising and spectacular scenery lift accessed mountain biking in the world. The 8 km long famous A Line ( a Mountain Adventure favorite )has over 100 berms and delivers you at great speed to the base of the Fitzsimons chair (a specialized chair that carry’s your bikes as well) wear you can do it all over again – Unless you felt like you might want to pop into the GLC (well know locals & visitors bar) for a refreshing beverage first we know we like too!
Another Mountain Adventure Favorite is Crank It UP – so much fun with a long smooth trail with some serious dips and table tops to get some fun air whoo hooo!!!

The ever innovative Whistler Bike Park added access to the Garbanzo Chair and built an amazing array of ladder and bridged trail networks with Freight Train being the new most popular star.

The thing we here at Mountain Adventures strive to achieve is access to this exhilarating sport for every one. For the Whistler Bike Park we see it as a pleasure to share knowledge of the vast amount of trails for every ability. We can also arrange guided tours & lessons for all skill and age level.

The wonderful thing about whistler valley is the variety of trails that’s offered. There so many it would take a very, very long time to get bored here (and you end up with the nick name mountain goat), its once again a world class - setting the standard for other resorts!

Mountain Adventures Favorites: (wear do we begin!)

Binty’s – this is one of my personal favorites - Intermediate
Ever heard the expression ‘earn your turns’ – well Binty’s fits into this category. With a steep but achievable heat rate raiser of climb that ends with a panoramic view of the valley, Whistler & Blackcomb mountains you are truly awarded with the downward turns. With switch back after switch back you get some great speed and flow in this trail.

Tunnel Vision - Intermediate to Advanced
Tunnel Vision has great mix of technical & flow. A rock face, some ramps in which you get some serious air off (or go around with smaller ramps) this ride has something for everyone and that’s why we like it!!

Kill Me Thrill Me – Advanced
The name says it all! With lots of rock, ladders, bridges and a well know rock descent section Kill Me Thrill me has not killed any of us but sure has thrilled us!

Lost Lake Trail’s – Beginners to Intermediate
If your just new to mountain biking or like something a little less ‘heart in mouth’ there is a great trail network in the Lost Lake area. Lost Lake has smooth wide open trails in a spectacular settings ideal for family or the casual pleasure rider. But there is more to the area, with a great single track woven into the Lost Lake Park. If you’re getting into the single track this is the ideal playground to start. A lot of work has been put into these trails to give them great flow. As well as being a great place to start your single track adventures, the more experienced should not leave this area off your list there lots of fun to be had here with new bridges and harder options its great area to progress your skills.

This just a mere selection of our favorites, we can arrange guided tours or just directions to get to the rides, and then you can make your own favorites list.
